I am from books from sports (swimming, tennis and golf) from laughter I am from the water lakes, oceans and pools I am from the backyard the grass and trees and the dirt and rocks.
I am from spaghetti and meatballs from good-smelling laundry detergent from the wild-ones and the wise-ones I am from business title insurance and housing I am from flight attendants from good cooks from animal lovers.
I'm from hamburgers on the grill from cookies and milk from open heart surgery and hip replacements.
I am from family, from smiles and hugs from memories galore all of them trying to pull back to life.

I am from books
from sports
(swimming, tennis and golf)
from laughter
I am from the water
lakes, oceans and pools
I am from the backyard
the grass and trees
and the dirt and rocks.
I am from spaghetti and meatballs
from good-smelling laundry detergent
from the wild-ones
and the wise-ones
I am from business
title insurance and housing
I am from flight attendants
from good cooks
from animal lovers.
I'm from hamburgers on the grill
from cookies and milk
from open heart surgery
and hip replacements.
I am from family,
from smiles and hugs
from memories galore
all of them trying to pull back to life.
